Video Catches Cop Breaking the Law — Twice

Bad Cop….No Donut!

A Brooklyn traffic cop became a YouTube star when she was caught on camera parking her patrol car in front of a fire hydrant – and then giving the finger to the cameraman. Then, as he filmed, another woman walked up, told him she was retired NYPD, and ordered him to stop filming the traffic agent because of terrorism.

Beckham Scores!

Just returned from my first LA Galaxy game; August 15.  Jason and I attended the game, in addition to Paul and his co-workers.  Beckham played today and was the team captain.  He scored the first goal, a beautiful penalty shot that curved directly into the goal, a very sweet sight indeed.  Beckham’s pass to Donovan resulted in another goal.  Final Score:  LA Galaxy: 2  DC United: 0

Elton John blames the Internet for everything (lack of communication and crappy artist).  He obviously does not know what he is talking about.

The Wheel of Life: Part II

Tonight Michelle and I returned to the Wheel of Life resturant in Irvine. But tonight we went armed with the knowledge that the Stuffed Tofu Surprise was not great, and that we did like the Sweet and Sour Pork, very much!

So this time we ordered three dishes. We agreed that we both liked the Sweet and Sour Pork and that was a must have, but we both wanted to pick out something new as well. Here is what we ordered:

Michelle chose the Brocilli Beef (not real beef, remember this place is vegiterian).

And of course we got the Sweet and Sour Pork…

File-Sharing Kids: “I really don’t care, it’s not my problem…

…Singers and actors are rich enough” According to a study into children
’s safety and how they use the internet, European kids appear to have a basic grasp of the law when it comes to file-sharing. However, they aren’t really bothered by it and just carry on downloading – music in particular.

Fitness Myth: Swimming is a great weight loss activity.

While swimming is great for increasing lung capacity, toning muscles, and even helping to burn off excess tension, Harr says the surprising truth is that unless you are swimming for hours a day, it may not help you lose much weight.”Because the buoyancy of the water is supporting your body, you’re not working as hard as it would if, say, you were moving on your own steam — like you do when you run,” says Harr.

Further, he says, it’s not uncommon to feel ravenous when you come out of the water.

“It may actually cause you to eat more than you normally would, so it can make it harder to stay with an eating plan,” he says.
